there was a pretty small field and it seemed many robots were not complete (176's robot stood out. A former world champion and winner of several Blue Banners does not build a coffee table on wheels. they are probably still finishing up the competition bot) and thus did not score very well at all.
The match that stuck out to me was a qualification match where the blue alliance raced out to a 20 to nothing lead but lost the match 40 to 30 due to a pair of technical fouls incurred by the feeder by reaching their hands through the slot. There were a couple of other matches where there were more penalty points than points scored as well.
